I have been watching videos of our young citizens stranded in Ukraine making fervent pleas for evacuation. It is heart wrenching to see their plight. I can understand their desperation to get back home safely. But when a war is raging in that country and there is so much 1/3
uncertainty on the ground, and when operational links are broken, it is only fair that we support our officers and embassies to focus on the job at hand. I know from experience that these operations can be tough and delicate. Let us not politicise the evacuation process.2/3
It will demoralise those conducting the operation. Scoring points at this hour of crisis will make us look bad. Let us work together.3/3
